A given coin has a mass of 3.0 g. Calculate the nuclear energy that would be required to separate all the neutrons and protons from each other. For simplicity assume that the coin is entirely made of ^{63}_{29} Cu atoms (of mass 62.92960 u).

I found an answer from ncert.nic.in

Physics. 438. 13.1 INTRODUCTION. In the previous chapter, we have learnt that in every atom, the ... various properties of nuclei such as their size, mass and stability, and ... and its constituents, ∆M, is called the mass defect, and is given by ... apart a nucleus in this way, the nuclear binding energy is still a convenient.

Given that
Mass of copper coin ^{63}_{29} C, m = 3 g
Atomic mass of copper A = 62.92960 amu
Step 1: Compute the number of atoms given grams and units of atomic mass
Number of atoms = \frac{NA}{A} * \text{ mass }
Where, NA - Avogadro's number ( 6.023 * 10^{23}) atoms/g , A - atomic mass
= \frac{6.023 * 10^{23}}{62.92960} * 3
= 2.868 * 10^{22} atoms
Step 2: Finding the mass defect of all nucleus present in the coin
Number of protons = 29
Number of neutrons = 34
Mass of proton m_H = 1.007825 u
Mass of neutron m_n = 1.008665 u
Mass defect of nitrogen \Delta m = m_H + m_n - m
\Delta m=29*(1.007825)+34*(1.008665)-62.92960
\Delta m=0.592 amu
Mass defect of all nucleus present in the coin \Delta m = 0.592 * 2.868 * 10^{22}
\Delta m = 1.698 * 10^{22} amu
Converting atomic mass units to MeV/c^2
1 amu = 931.5 MeV/c^2
\Delta m=1.698\cdot10^{22}\ \cdot931.5\ MeV/c^2
\Delta m=1.581\ \cdot\ 10^{25}\ MeV/c^2
Step 3: Determining binding energy of the given nucleus
Binding energy \Delta E_d = \Delta mc^2
\Delta E_d=1.581\ \cdot10^{25}\ MeV/c^2*c^2
\Delta E_d=1.581\cdot\ 10^{25}\ MeV
Therefore, binding energy of the nucleus of the coin \Delta E_d=1.581\cdot\ 10^{25}\ MeV\Delta E_d=1.581\ MeV
Converting MeV to joules
1 MeV = 1.6 * 10^{-13} J
\Delta E_d=1.581\cdot10^{25}\cdot\ 1.6\cdot\ 10^{-13}\ J
\Delta E_d = 2.53 * 10^{12} J
Hence, energy required to separate all the protons and neutrons is \Delta E_d = 2.53 * 10^{12} J
